Massachusetts Politics.

The signs of political activity are APP
parent in Massachusetts. Already the
course to be pursued by the democrats in
the conduct of the campaign has become
known. Their effort will be chiefly to
give Mr. Cleveland and his administration a
hearty endorsement to the exclusion OF
every thing else. The great questions OF
policy will be almost wholly ignored and
the discussions will be confined to person
al matters pertaining to candidates. 1t
will be in fine, an attempt to boom the
denomination of Mr.. Cleveland. But
such a course is not surprising. The
record of the party in its attitude on any
of the great questions of the day is not
OF such nature as to stand vigorous
and critical attack from the republicans.
Its position on State issues is not un-
assailable and would not find unanimous
endorsement among democrats. Therefore
this course seems to be the only one open
to them. Yet whether the republicans
will allow it is a very doubtful matter,
with the preponderance Of the probability
that they will not. They are not inclined
to allow such lodging OF the great
national questions, not least of all some
of those which have during the lastsession
of the State legislature been presented
and still remain unsettled. The republic
cans are able to take the aggressive the
more easily because of their excellent
record made in the administration OF State
affairs. They mean business too. Re-
publican clubs are being formed all over
the State ard an intense interest is being
awakened which foreshadows the victory
of the party at the next election.
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1887-07-27

The attention of the readers of the
Journal is called to the interview with
Governor Bodwell published in another
column. His comparison of the condition
of the laboring men in States where high
license or no temperance law is had, with
that of those of this State, based upon
facts coming under his personal observa-
ton. shows conclusively the benefits
derived from prohibition. He also salts
factorily disproves the charges that his en-
forcement of the law and especially his
action in special cases has been TOR politi
cal purposes and displays an honest and
conscientious desire to faithfully discharge
oil the duties devolving upon his office.
His personal conviction as to the merits of
laws restricting the liquor traffic also leads
him to strict enforcement OF the laws
provided by the people of this State. In
every particular his course is commend
able and merits the approval of the citi-
zens of the State, with 1t so generally re
ceived

That the republican convention of Ohio,
which meets in Toledo, will afford strik =
ing contrast to the democratic convention
OF last week, in the nominations made and
the platform produced, is not to be ques-
toned The denomination of Governor
Foraker is foregone conclusion. His
successful administration is its guarantee.
His craftsmanship places him among the
most eminent OF Ohio republicans. and
creates HIM the peer of the democratic NOM
inee. The platform will be undoubtedly
square. honest and comprehensive dec
laration of the republican principles, cas-
ily understood and capable of no twisting.
Victory in Ohio is already assured for the
republicans.

AnInstance Of Longevity.

A widow, 20 years of age, living in Texas,
has a cattle ranch with several hundred head
of cattle upon it, which she takes care of per-
sonaily. She is out in all weathers, and is
able to ride mustang on a full run. The
foregoing has been the rounds of the papers,
and many comments have been made as to
the cause of her health and endurance. 1t is
very simple matter, when it is known that
she is constantly supplied with Steele's Little
Bile Pills, which keep her liver in healthy
condition. and induce a healthy circulation
of the blood, assuring her a good appetite,
good digestion, and consequently sound sleep.
